"Complete lack of communication"

About: The Royal London Hospital

The fifth stay for our son in this hospital under the neuro team in 39 years - a lovely new building but still the lack of communication between the neurosurgeon's and us - his parents, who have cared for him through a lifetime of disabilities.

All events have been documented and dated online.
